Hotel Col Alto, Corvara

They say that breakfast is the most important meal of the day and at the Col Alto they go all out. Expect a comprehensive range of food across a number of hot and cold buffet tables as well as tea and coffee served to your table. 

In the evening you can indulge as much as you want. To start with you'll find all sorts of delicious appetisers on the buffet and you can help yourself to as many as you like. Next up is main course with a multiple choice menu of regional and national Italian dishes. Back up to the buffet and a selection of small deserts and cheese await.

On New Years Eve they serve a delicious gala dinner.

Please note that tap water is not provided at dinner, only mineral water (payable locally)

Found in the Alta Badia ski area and a linked offshoot of the Sella Ronda circuit, Corvara is one of the bigger villages. It is also one of the more lively. There are lots of restaurants, bars and hotels and, as one recent visitor has noted, 'if you like good food and great wine and beer, this is the place for you'. The other villages on the circuit offer even more eateries, but drinking and driving is just as stupid in Italy as it is anywhere else. Corvara is very conveniently positioned to get the most out of the region's skiing, much of which favours intermediate cruisers and beginners. Experts may well want to stay in nearby Arabba for some of best tough stuff in the Italian Alps. Unfortunately, as with the less well-known Italian resorts, foreign languages are not widely spoken, so ski school in particular can be a bit of a problem.

Overall, Corvara is a good spot for getting the best of the Alta Badia and the Sella Ronda areas – also offering plenty to occupy your stomach in the evenings…
